Benefits of Landscaping Metal Edging
Metal edging improves the overall appearance of your landscaping, but there are benefits beyond aesthetic appeal. Here are some reasons our clients love metal edging:
- Durability: Metal edging is incredibly durable, providing long-lasting support and protection for your property. It holds up through harsh weather conditions, including extreme temperatures and heavy rainfall, helping to maintain the look of your landscaping.
- Versatility: Metal edging is versatile enough to use throughout your property. Choose to separate flower beds from lawns, create borders around trees and shrubs, or delineate pathways and walkways.
- Low maintenance: Edging made from other materials like wood or plastic could deteriorate or rot over time. Metal edging resists rot, decay, and insect infestations, eliminating the need for frequent repairs or replacements.
- Grass and weed control: Metal edging effectively prevents grass and weeds from encroaching into flower beds, pathways, and other landscaped areas. Since it helps reduce the spread of weeds, you may find you no longer need to use herbicides for weed maintenance.
Our Metal Edging Installation Process
The process of installing metal edging for landscaping typically involves the following steps:
- Planning and Measuring: We begin by evaluating your property to see the areas where you want to install edging. This allows us to determine how much edging we will need for the project. Taking accurate measurements ensures we use the correct amount of edging for your property.
- Site Preparation: Before we begin to install the edging we clear away any rocks, leaves, or other obstacles. If necessary we level the ground and compact the soil to provide a stable base for the edging.
- Cutting: Using the measurements we took during the site evaluation, we cut each piece of edging, taking into account any curves and corners.
- Placement: We expertly place each piece of edging, using stakes or anchors to hold it in place. The edging will sit flush with the ground, forming a straight line or curve along the area.
- Backfilling: Once the metal edging is in place, we survey the entire area for any gaps or uneven areas. We backfill those areas with soil or mulch, creating the finished look. Before we leave, we smooth out the area for a polished result.
Create Sharp Lines with Metal Edging
Metal edging is durable enough to withstand fluctuating temperatures and heavy rainfall without shifting. It holds mulch and gravel in place, preventing erosion that destroys the look of your landscape design.
